Remove/hide column list view workspace

[Community Alums]

Hi all,

How can I remove or hide a column from a list in the workspace. Even make it visible only to admin is fine. Eg. If I want to hide/remove the opened or any other columns, is there anyway to do that? Thanks

Hi @Community Alums 

You can configure the default workspace columns through below steps ,  If this also dosen't help please let me know 

Steps:
1. Navigate to sys_ux_list_list.do
2. Search for the Workspace configuration you want to edit
3. Update the columns as required

This method only modifies the default columns displayed in a list view.  It does not hide or otherwise prevent a column from being added to a view using the "Customize Personal List" function.  It also would not hide that column from anyone who has already modified their view because they are no longer using the default.

Hi @Community Alums 

 Navigate to sys_ux_list_list.do >> Add your table in column search >> Once you get the record, open it

For example, Open Requests on table Request [sc_request], below you can see column field on form. From there you need to add or remove fields you want and then save
